FUNNY THINGS OF THE wAR.

Queer Freaks Taken by Mem on sAa
Misunderstanding a Looking GIasa.
''There were lots of funny things about
the war" said Col. Frederick Martin OF
the Brooklyn Elevated the other day.
now that you think of them when the
tears are dried away, and about the fun
NEST things I recall were the queer artf-
cles the boys used to pick up on the march
and the eccentric way in which they'd
tote 'em along to finally adorn some ditch
by the wayside. Stragglers were the
worst at this, but all the fellows were bad
enough. Whenever the army went
through a first family residence the boys
would capture what struck each as most
attractive, and some of their tastes were
peculiar. They had great weakness for
cradles. You may ask me what man
treading his way to the front wanted with
q mahogany cradle, and I'm blest IL
know, but they took 'em. First one man
would back cradle and cart it q dozen
miles: then he'd begin to cuss and finally
drop it.
'Now you'd suppose that any ordinary
idiot would just look at cradle as it lay
in the road and pass on, but they wouldn't.
Some one would be certain to pick it up
and lug it few miles further into the Con-
federcy.
''I recall one cradle that travelled 100
miles on blue backs before it went to in
crease the blaze of a mess fire. Somehow
they seemed to think vaguely that there
was 8 chance of getting the infant soother
home, but they never succeeded.
1.-THE funniest thing ever saw carried
was q looking glass high as your head
and two feet wide. I saw it first in the
parlor Of central Virginian mansion and
next on a soldiers back headed for Peters
burg. Then lost sight of it for two days
and found it again propped up against q
tree forty miles further along. The next
day saW IL trave1lng rendeFiy on strag
gler'S back. He had his gun in one hand
and had somehow strapped the glass so
that he could get along without holding
fast to it.
.sWeu, this fellow must have got tired,
for the next day third man had it and
the next a fourth. This chap teted it on
to the lines at Petersburg. He set it up
against q tree, took q long, regretful look
at full length of his shabby self and turned
away with sigh.
s1It was just as well that he did. The
next minute along came a mimic bullet,
buzzing like hornet, and hit the glass
square in the center and smashed it into
q frame full Of cracks radiating from
around the hole
The heavier and the more useless things
were the more they chung to them, even
combining to escort pianos into untimely
graves in mud holes; but the man VINO
could steal q rocking chair was white
robed angel in his own mind and the OBJ
iect of universal envy.
"Anether funny thing was TO have the
sutler strike the camp loaded with con-
densed milk. I've seen a whole regiment
sitting ON q fence, each man with milk
can in one hand dipping out the thick
white stuff with his forefnger and licking
it off with an expression of Deatitude that
would make Raphaelite saint look sick

nafes are written out Mr.. Bancroft de-
--,tes himself to the work of condensing
